How It Works

Convert any document to Excel, CSV, Word, or JSON in under a minute.

What You Need

  • A document to convert — receipt, bank statement, invoice, credit card statement, paystub, or image of a table
  • Any device with a browser and internet connection — desktop, tablet, or phone
  • No account or credit card required — convert up to 10 files per day for free, or unlock 5-file batches and email delivery with a free account

Three Steps, Under One Minute

  1. Upload & Select Format

    Upload your file (JPG, PNG, HEIC, HEIF, TIFF, WebP, or single- or multi-page PDF), pick the document type, and choose an output format: Excel, CSV, Word, JSON — or, on Premium, Xero CSV or QuickBooks CSV.

  2. AI Data Extraction

    Our AI reads the document, identifies every field automatically, and structures the data into rows and columns — entirely in-memory with zero data retention.

  3. Download Your File

    Download the converted file instantly. Free+ and Premium can also receive results by email; Premium can deliver an entire batch as a single ZIP. Files are auto-named with merchant, type, and date.

The Exact Data ScanToExcel Extracts

Choose Your Export Format

ScanToExcel offers six flexible export formats to match your workflow — four available on every plan, plus two accounting exports on Premium:

📊 Excel (.xlsx)

Best for: Spreadsheet analysis, calculations, pivot tables, and most accounting software.

📄 CSV

Best for: Importing into databases, ERP systems, or other software. Universal and lightweight.

📝 Word (.docx)

Best for: Editable documents and reports with context around extracted table data.

🔧 JSON

Best for: Developers — preserves all extracted structured data in raw form for custom processing and automation workflows.

📒 Xero CSV (Premium)

Best for: Direct import into Xero accounting for receipts, invoices, bank statements, and credit card statements — no manual reformatting.

📗 QuickBooks CSV (Premium)

Best for: Direct import into QuickBooks Online or Desktop for bank statements and credit card statements. (QuickBooks runs its own OCR for receipts and invoices, so it doesn't accept CSV import for those.)
